Jharkhand sees troubling trend of babies in dump

Welfare department officials found that every month, 'one or two babies abandoned mostly by unwed mothers'

bandoned infants are being found, dead or alive, with alarming regularity in the Jharkhand capital and child protection officials don’t seem to know how to stem the disturbing pattern.

Between June and December this year, 10 newborns were reportedly found along roads, in garbage vats or in drains and activists believe this is only a conservative estimate. While abandoning the girl child is quite common in the state, many of the infants are boys and hence, perhaps born out of wedlock.

The latest rescue took place on Saturday when members of social outfit Rebels Club heard cries of a baby at Idris Colony in Kantatoli under Lower Bazaar thana.

“It must have been around 7pm. We traced the cries to a gunny bag near an apartment. Inside it was a baby boy, barely hours old. He hadn’t even been cleaned properly. We quickly arranged for clothes to protect him from the cold and informed police,” said Arzoo Khan, a member of the club who runs a garage in the area.

China should ease pain from one-child policy repercussions

In 1992, I was abandoned as a baby and found in a public place in Hefei, China. For almost two years, I lived in an orphanage and with a foster mother. Then my adoptive mother flew me to Sacramento, California, where I grew up.

My existence here in the United States is due to China’s infamous one-child policy, which was imposed for more than three decades before it was eased to a two-child policy in 2015.

I am one of more than 90,000 children adopted from China and raised in the US between 1992 and 2018.

About 40,000 other children went to families in the Netherlands, Spain and Britain.

In her devastating poem, One Art, Elizabeth Bishop writes of loss in a way I relate to. She describes misplacing stuff like keys and a watch, but also losing things a little less trivial: names and places; rivers, cities and continents; and finally, that mysterious “you.”

About

Welcome to Viet Nam Family Search (VNFS)!

We are an adoptee led service designed to facilitate search and reunion between Vietnamese intercountry adoptees with birth families in Viet Nam.

Viet Nam Family Search is the formalisation of a worldwide service which has been provided informally since 2001.

We are fellow Vietnamese adoptees who understand the lifelong journey of searching for identity, the importance of connecting with our homeland, and the daunting task of finding paperwork and ultimately hoping to be reunited with birth family in Viet Nam. The team has broad personal and case experience. Many years of experience connecting with Vietnamese families searching for their children has developed an acute understanding of their specific needs and sensitivies. It is crucial in cross border searches that the language, social and cultural pathways are navigated respectfully. Our team is able to provide this on your behalf.
